presidential suite‟s window were very excited to see Simone‟s shadow and started to take a picture. We also can see clearly on picture 13.3,
all of the tricks that Viktor did, were his own idea. He finished it by himself without any
help. From the analysis, we can conclude that masculinity can be identified
or revealed from someone‟s intelligence and logical thinking. Viktor uses his logical thinking when he tricked the reporters through blonde wig and Barbie
doll in order to protect Simone‟s undercover identity.
f. Personality
Personality means the characteristics and qualities of a person which can be seen as a whole. And interpersonal means exiting or done between two
people where one of them can be leader and dominant. Based on their interpersonal, men usually have leadership, more dominating than women,
disciplinarian, more independent, free, individual, and responsibility. In Simone film, Viktor Taransky was represented as a man who had a
leadership characteristic, more independent, and responsible. Viktor was a film director and it meant that he had to be a leader for his crews. Film
director usually more dominating because he had to manage all of the scene‟s
mo vement in film. The dialogue below shows Viktor‟s thought about his job
when he talked to Elaine: Viktor
: ―Don‘t you see? They are mocking us, Elaine. They‘re mocking, we‘re at their mercy. What happened? I mean,
we always had a movie stars, but they used to be our stars, remember? We were the one who tell them what to
do and we would tell them what to wear, who to date —‖
Elaine : ―That‘s what you want.‖

Viktor : ―—When they were under contract to us, we could change
their names if we wanted to more than once.‖
Simone, 00:05:48 – 00:06:07
The sentence We were the one who tell them what to do means that film director could be
a leader for the actors and the actresses who played in his film. Even, the director could change their names for the sake of their
bright career. The other characteristic in masculinity is independent. After divorced, Viktor lived without household assistant. He was doing the
housework by himself. As seen on the picture below:
Picture 14 Picture 14 tells Viktor made a breakfast while Lainey
was typing in her laptop. He cooked
some baked breads and sausage for them. Lainey should be able to make a breakfast since she is a girl but she just sat in front of her
laptop and talked to her father. It would be possible for Viktor asked Lainey to cook but he did nothing. Living alone without any household made Viktor
more independent and also responsible for himself. Responsibility
is a masculinity‟s characteristic. In this film, the responsibility characteristic is also appears from conversation below:
Lainey : ―I‘m sorry Mom canned you.‖
Viktor : ―Well, I‘m gonna finish this picture. Lainey, I‘m gonna
finish it. Because it‘s important.‖ Lainey
: ―I know you‘ll do it, Dad. You‘re Viktor Taransky.‖ Viktor
: ―I‘m Viktor Taransky.‖

Simone, 00:08:21 – 00:08:40
Viktor gained his bright career as a film director by himself, particularly after he lost the actress that rejected Viktor‟s film project due to
„creative differences‟. Viktor fired by Elaine as the producer because of differences opinion about business in cinema‟s world. He was failed three
times to produce film and he even lost his actress, Nicola Anders, in the latest film that he produced. When Viktor
looking for another actress to replace Nicola, Elaine refused it and told him to press his egoism in order to get
Nicola back, but Viktor did not want to have any relation again with Nicola. Although he was fired, he was still persisting to finish his film whatever the
problem happened and the sentence I‘m gonna finish this picture, Lainey, I‘m
gonna finish it because it‘s important supports the evidence of Viktor‟s responsibility. The other responsibility shows from dialogue below:
Viktor : ―Can you ever stop doing that?‖
Lainey : ―Why?‖
Viktor : ―You‘ll lose yourself in that thing. You gotta get out more.
How you gonna meet boys?‖ Lainey
: ―Dad, I know plenty of boys.‖ Viktor
: ―You do? Who? Where do you meet them? You meet them in those chat rooms? How do you know you‘re not talking to
some middle- aged freak?‖
Lainey : ―Dad, I can spot a middle-aged freak a mile away.‖
Viktor : ―It‘s beautiful today. Let‘s go outside and eat. And Lainey,
leave the computer, please.‖ Simone, 00:30:14 - 00:30:43
Viktor married two times. Elaine was his second wife, but they were
divorced. From his marriage with Elaine, he had one daughter named Lainey. Viktor was very close with his 13 years old daughter. From the dialogue
above, we know that Viktor was really nice to Lainey. In his opinion, chatting
40
with unknown people on the chat room was a bad habit, so he wanted Lainey
to leave it for her sake .
As a father, he had a responsibility to take care of his daughter. From the analysis we know that a masculine man should be a leader
for women or the other people, more independent than women, and tends to have more
responsible in doing something.
